REVIEW INFORMATION ABSTRACT This review deals with synthesis, reactions and their applications of pyranotriazolo‐ pyrimidines. The main purpose of this review is present a survey of literatures on the reactivity of amino imino derivatives and carboxylic acid derivatives. Some of these reactions have been applied successfully to the synthesis of biological important compounds.

Introduction chemical and biological view points, due to their diverse pharmacological activities, such as antitumor potency [19,20], Pyran derivatives have attracted a great deal of interest inhibition of KDR kinase [21], antifungal effect [22] and owing to their antimicrobial activity [1‐7], inhibition of influ‐ macrophage activation [23]. enza, virus sialidase [8], mutagenic activity [9], activity as antiviral [10], anti‐proliferaction agents [11], sex pheromones [12], antitumor [13] and anti‐inflammatory agents [14]. The condensation of a ring of 1,2,4‐triazole and another one of pyrimidine gives rise to the formation of bicyclic hetero‐ cycles known as 1,2,4‐triazolopyrimidines. Four different possibilities exist for the relative orientation of both rings, so four different isomeric families of compounds are defined: 1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐a]pyrimidine (I), 1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐c]pyrimi‐ dine (II), 1,2,4‐triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidine (III) and 1,2,4‐ triazolo[4,3‐c]pyrimidine (V) (Figure 1). Among these isomeric families of compounds, 1,2,4‐ triazolo[1,5‐a]‐pyrimidine derivatives are thermodynamically more stable and, thus, the most studied ones [15], a few of them being commercially available. Revisions surveying the synthesis, reactivity, spectroscopic characterization and crystallographic studies of 1,2,4‐triazolo[1,5‐c]‐pyrimidines [16], 1,2,4‐triazolo[4,3‐a]pyrimidines [17] and 1,2,4‐triazolo Figure 1.
